A photograph of a shrine inside a stone temple at Angkor Wat, Cambodia. A large seated Buddha statue in ochre-red robes stands at the centre, framed by yellow fabric drapes overhead. Tall golden floral and leaf sprays flank the statue, with gold lamps and candles on the altar. The foreground holds a spread of offerings: white and pink flowers, a bowl of bananas, halved coconuts, fruit, and small silver bowls. Ornate red and gold canopy detailing rests above the statue. No people are visible in the scene.
